How Don Quixote deshacía entuertos, deshizo modernos malentendidos literarios Javier Cercas in Ingreso el la Real Academia Española (RAE). El escritor extremeño (Ibahernando, Cáceres 1962) with his colleagues entitled 'Malentendidos de la modernidad'. 'Un manifesto', subtituló su extensa y crítica alocución, con la que He destroyed topics such as the uselessness of art, the sacralization of the writer, isolation in the ivory tower. Systematic denigration of folk literature as bad and consecration of minority as good.
Si días atrás, Álvaro Pombo, also an academic and recent winner of the Cervantes prize, said in the same RAE that the author of 'Kijote is “un 'pringao' genial que nunca ganó nada”, while his colleague Cercas was probably the winner. Cervantes, “nunca hubiera won the Cervantes prize,” recalling the novel's father.
Cree Cercas que en la literatura “is not based on arguments, no superstitions, prejudices, uncertainties or simple ideas, uncertainties, etc.”. The noble Caserón academico al que Cercas arrived with a portrait of Miguel de Cervantes. was accepted by the valedors of his candidacy: academician Clara Sánchez, absent Nobel laureate Mario Vargas Llosa and Pedro Alvarez de Miranda.
At the beginning of a wide-ranging speech reviewing his life and literary ambitions, he asserted the new title of the R chair “Escribir de verdad consiste en escribir contra el cliché” by citing a pleiade of narrators, poets and thinkers: Homer, Ovid, Tirso de Molina, Lichtemberg, Sterne, Kant, Sainte -Beuve, Baudelaire, De Vigny, Leopardi, Wilde, Flaubert, Valery, Henry James, Conrad, Kafka, Joyce, Proust, Sartre, Faulkner, Virginia Woolf, Scott Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Nabokov, Borges, Octavio Paz, Bernhard, Brodsky, Kundera or Heidegger, trufaron de citas su discurso. Then Shakespeare Cervantes and universales Don Quixote and Sancho, “dos chiflados sin remedio”.
The original literature is “con palabras en rebeldía” according to Cercas. Almost “extraordinarily represented”. To do this “solo quiere ciudadanos sumisos, gente que dice 'sí', siempre aspirará a controlarla, a somemeterla, a localarla”. “Si de él dependiera, no lo duden: la prohibiría de immediato,” he said. “¿Hay algo más útil que eso?”, he asked Cercas to argue that literature is useful.
For the author of 'Soldados de Salamina' or 'El Impostor' Alguien con una buena novela en las manos “es un peligro public, una bomba de relojería ambulante, un potencial pensador por cuenta propia, un subordinado en alman”. Unos ciudadanos “capaces de decir 'no' – like el hombre rebelde de Camus or el enemigo del pueblo de Ibsen – when the whole world around them says 'yes', como lo hacen, de manera insuperable, Alonso Quijano and Emma Bovary” , que son para Cercas “dos lectores ideales”.
The theme of Desmontó el is presented as “Un novela de éxito es por definición mala”, “The art of derota of Shakespeare's famous dramas Quixote and Elizabeth of England”.
“Neither Cervantes nor Shakespeare were prestigious writers in their time: todos sabemos que Cervantes never received the Cervantes Prize. o no sin escándalo de la crítica, y que en su época Shakespeare apenas era considerados literatura”, aventuró Cercas.
“La prueba es que sus obras no se publicaron con seridad antes de su muerte; pero hoy nadie duda del lugar que tanto Cervantes como Shakespeare ocupan en la cima del canon occidental”, added the author of the book “Anatomía de un instante”. “There is no grace in the popularity of literature; he said with certainty.
Para Cercas is “the time of the infallible literary critic”. The author has no problem, “because escritor desperación el favor to the public “because escritor de verdad only ascribe lo que lleva en las intrañas, lo que no tiene más remedio que escribir”.
“After my life, escritor de verdad puede ser cualquier cosa menos un idiota” he clarified that “idiota comes from the Greek word idiotes, meaning a person who only cares about himself and desentiende de lo común, es decir de lo public, es decir de la politica”.
Jamás pensó Cercas en ser académico, but in September 2022 the vacant tras el cécimiento named after Javier Marías and R in September 2022. He marked it with sincerity, love and respect as “uno de los grandes novelistas españoles del último siglo, tal vez uno de los grandes novelistas españoles a secas”. También como un “hombre peleón”, como el propio Marías se definedíó.
